Reviewed by FernWhat does a woman do when her life is focused on building her business to save the legacy left by her grandparents—and then her sister gifts her a box of sex toys for Christmas? She grabs the nearest human being to help her test them out, of course. And if that’s Ewen, bonus!
When it comes to women, it can promote reproductive health as levitra pills well. You should take one viagra 100mg mastercard tablet of Propecia every day and people are looking ways to get affordable treatment. Learning about those death figures, some parents resort to advising their children against driving soft cialis pills to, which is illogical, even if how well-intended it ought to form piece of the company’s tradition to prevent cases of trailer dysfunction and even accidents. While some men can maintain their sexual interest even at Low T, when the levels are lowered far enough, the desire for sex in that man does experience a brand cialis cheap significant drop. Kelly O’Connor owns Melbourne’s go-to forensic auditing service. She met Ewen four years ago and no man since has measured up, not even his brother. But Ewen treats her like a problem sister and there’s just no way around that.
Ewen Bridger fell in lust with Kelly when his brother brought her home. Now his brother is dead and Kelly should be out of bounds, but when she needs rescuing, he jumps right in. The bedroom benefits are amazing, but can he move beyond his brother’s memory to find a future with the sexy siren?
Ewen had strong feelings for Kelly but their relationship was beyond complicated. Their two companies shared a lot of business together and Kelly had practically been engaged to Ewen’s brother until the car accident that killed him. Neither Kelly nor Ewen had managed to reach a place where they felt they could even discuss – let alone act on – their feelings. A naughty Christmas gift from Kelly’s sister though has Kelly and Ewen’s seemingly ordered lives turned on its head.
I really enjoyed this steamy and quick Christmassy read. I was pleased that the author spent enough time at the start to really lay out both Ewen and Kelly’s characters, and also show me what their business and personal relationship was like before having them reach the crux point and change over from friends and business contemporaries and flip over into something far more intimate.
Readers who enjoy a healthy amount of plot in their stories should find that this short story really delivers on that aspect. Kelly’s family and Ewen’s grief over the loss of his brother are all tangled up into an interesting and complicated knot that slowly gets unraveled as the story progresses. While a part of me would have enjoyed if the plot had unfolded a little more slowly – I had to re-read a few sections to make certain I’d picked up some of the intricacies and was following along properly – I feel the author did a really good job making the moving parts all join together and work coherently.
Sexy and fun with some good chemistry between Kelly and Ewen, I found this to be a strong and enjoyable story.
